Wayne Rooney stars as James Bond in the Skyfall parody (Picture: YouTube)

Rooney, or should we say Bond, has been promoted from merely a tame, somewhat predictable goalscoring hero for Manchester United and England, and instead now spends his days infiltrating hair transplant labs and taking down the bad guys.The parody, made by Huffington Post UK Comedy, also includes cameo roles for United team-mates Ryan Giggs and Patrice Evra , and you may even recognise some of the scenes involving Rooney, as clips have been pulled in from various adverts the 26-year-old has starred in.Given the form Rooney’s been in this season, United fans may be horrified to see M (Judi Dench) writing his obituary, but all is well as our all-action hero finally makes his appearance and survives the minute-long clip in one piece.Having watched the Skyfall spoof, we at Metro are pretty sure whatever Rooney ventures into when he hangs up his boots, it won’t be following Vinnie Jones on to the silver screen – his closing line of ‘They say he is a legend’ is almost as wooden as he makes many defenders look every week.
